Many folks contributed to that.

That META OP itself was inspired by several other folks whose posts made me curious and just the amount I was able to find in a quick search made it clear to me what dkf was.

I was actually fairly late to the "Hey, dkf is a troll" bandwagon. By the time of my Meta OP, which was December 1, 2012, people had been raising heck for many months about it.

problem with Obama was all the more suspicious because it was clear it was not an ideological difference.

In some ways, she trolled too well. If you are not obviously to the left of where Obama is, why does he bother you? She would fall back on saying she supported Single payer and Social security, then had obvious right wing talking points in posts.

You can't play a progressive too far to the left of Obama to like him and then post unambiguously right wing talking points and expect people to not notice. She did that.
